i have a 91 eagle talon fwd and i got a whole new suspension (struts and springs) kit when i bought it and i put the front ones on with out a problem but when i put the rear ones on they dont sit right and the strut is sitting out of the tower about 4 inches when the car sits on the ground, i was wondering if the awd suspension was longer in the rear and the person ordered the wrong ones or what else would have caused it.

They might have....i would assume they are different why else would they title the parts for a front wheel drive car and the parts for a awd car. You know what i mean man.

ya i checked CAPS and the part numbers are different so im going to have to find new ones.
 
so my friend and i figured out why, turns out the washer that hold it down that goes uner the hat was missing and thats why it did this. Tomorrow it will be all fixed thanks for your help.
